"But I said, 'You know what, we're going to do this and we're going to do this for the people who feel they can't come out.'

"So they showed every road a person coming out as gay has to take, things that go wrong, parents and people not understanding it... It's been amazing for me to play that part, especially being the first Corrie lesbian. I was like, 'That's me!'

"What an amazing job, to stand and help people."

Brooke was speaking at the launch of the Couture Club in Dundrum Town Centre, Dublin.

The brand was created by Ex On The Beach star Ross Worswick and his good friend Scott Shashua, a practicing solicitor.

Scott spoke to RSVP Live about the launch and revealed his excitement to bring his pop-up store to Dublin.

He said: "It's two floors, it's the biggest store we've ever opened."

Scott continued that while they have the store in Dundrum Town Centre for 12 months, he and Ross want to make the Dublin store permanent.

"A few people have said to us that the store would do well in the city centre, but we're in shopping centres in Manchester and Newcastle.

"We're hoping to open a store in London next year, but we might have a store in the city centre in Dublin."

The entrepreneur also spoke about his love for Ireland - and a certain star who has taken the whole world by storm.
